A Two-Component Probability Distribution Function Describes the mid-IR Emission from the Disks of Star-Forming Galaxies

Debosmita Pathak, Adam K. Leroy, Todd A. Thompson +28

High-resolution JWST-MIRI images of nearby spiral galaxies reveal emission with complex substructures that trace dust heated both by massive young stars and the diffuse interstella…

Shock enhanced [CII] emission from the infalling galaxy Arp 25

Dario Fadda, Jessica S. Sutter, Robert Minchin +1

We present SOFIA observations with HAWC+ and FIFI-LS of the peculiar galaxy Arp 25, also known as NGC 2276 or UGC 3740, whose morphology is deformed by its impact with the intra-gr…

Calibrating mid-infrared emission as a tracer of obscured star formation on HII-region scales in the era of JWST

Francesco Belfiore, Adam K. Leroy, Thomas G. Williams +25

Measurements of the star formation activity on cloud scales are fundamental to uncovering the physics of the molecular cloud, star formation, and stellar feedback cycle in galaxies…

Accurate Oxygen Abundance of Interstellar Gas in Mrk 71 from Optical and Infrared Spectra

Yuguang Chen, Tucker Jones, Ryan Sanders +9

The heavy element content ("metallicity") of the Universe is a record of the total star formation history. Gas-phase metallicity in galaxies, as well as its evolution with time, is…

PHANGS-JWST First Results: Variations in PAH Fraction as a Function of ISM Phase and Metallicity

Jérémy Chastenet, Jessica Sutter, Karin Sandstrom +26

We present maps tracing the fraction of dust in the form of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in IC 5332, NGC 628, NGC 1365, and NGC 7496 from JWST/MIRI observations. We trac…

PHANGS-JWST First Results: Mapping the 3.3 micron Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Vibrational Band in Nearby Galaxies with NIRCam Medium Bands

Karin Sandstrom, Jérémy Chastenet, Jessica Sutter +28

We present maps of the 3.3 micron polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission feature in NGC 628, NGC 1365, and NGC 7496 as observed with the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) image…
